Tofo Beach

Tofo beach is situated in the province of Inhambane and is 22km from the City of Inhambane.

Inhambane as a City is steeped in history as it was a favorite place for ancient sailors and slave traders to stop and replenish their resources. The natural estuary allows vessels to enter a naturally calm area where there was always fresh water and supplies. Vasco De Gama the famous Portuguese adventurer made Inhambane one of his favourite stop off points as he and his men were able to moor their ships in the calm bay and replenish before continuing to and from the east.

The name Inhambane means the place of the friendly people and still today this legend lives on with the local population being extremely friendly and happy.

The local population tap the juice of the coconut trees during the season when the trees are flowering and with this sap they make a favorite alcoholic drink called Sura. At certain times of the year (Sura season) there are lots of celebrations and visitors are able to taste the powerful local brew at their own peril.
